VkIndirectExecutionSetShaderInfoEXT

The VkIndirectExecutionSetShaderInfoEXT structure is defined as:

typedef struct VkIndirectExecutionSetShaderInfoEXT {
    VkStructureType sType;
    const void* pNext;
    uint32_t shaderCount;
    const VkShaderEXT* pInitialShaders;
    const VkIndirectExecutionSetShaderLayoutInfoEXT* pSetLayoutInfos;
    uint32_t maxShaderCount;
    uint32_t pushConstantRangeCount;
    const VkPushConstantRange* pPushConstantRanges;
} VkIndirectExecutionSetShaderInfoEXT;

• sType is a VkStructureType value identifying this structure.
• pNext is NULL or a pointer to a structure extending this structure.
• shaderCount is the number of members in the pInitialShaders and pSetLayoutInfos arrays.
• pInitialShaders is a pointer to an array containing a VkShaderEXT object for each shader stage that will be used in the set. These shaders will be automatically added to the set beginning at index 0.
• pSetLayoutInfos is a pointer to an array containing a VkIndirectExecutionSetShaderLayoutInfoEXT used by each corresponding pInitialShaders shader stage in the set.
• maxShaderCount is the maximum number of shader objects stored in the set.
• pushConstantRangeCount is the number of members in the pPushConstantRanges array.
• pPushConstantRanges is a pointer to the array of VkPushConstantRange ranges used by all shaders in the set.

The characteristics of pInitialShaders will be used to validate all shaders added to the set even if they are removed from the set or destroyed.

When an Indirect Execution Set created with shader objects is used, pInitialShaders constitutes the initial shader state.
